Forecasts

The Gray Ghost (7/2), Goodwin (11/2), El Galactico (6/1), Mount Anglesby (6/1), Samuel Spade (6/1), Punta Del Este (7/1), Kapal Layar (8/1), Whatsupwithyou (14/1), Lord Snootie (20/1), Lucky One (25/1), Godot (40/1), Moviddy (50/1)

Although KAPAL LAYAR flopped on his reappearance his overall record is progressive and he can probably be given another chance. Last month's course scorer Mount Anglesby is second choice ahead of handicap newcomer El Galactico and last season's course winner Samuel Spade.
